Humanly launches an updated conversational AI platform for high-volume enterprise hiring.
The platform is enhanced with five years of new training data from human and automated interviews.
It offers a unified framework for chat qualification, phone screenings, and structured video interviews.
The goal is to engage more applicants and drastically reduce time-to-hire.
The system integrates with major applicant-tracking systems like SAP SuccessFactors.
It aims to move companies from engaging 5% of applicants to considering all candidates.
The core mission of the updated platform is to address the significant inefficiency in how companies process applicants. Prem Kumar, the company's CEO and co-founder, explained, "Companies usually only talk to about five percent of the people who apply without AI tools. Our goal with Humanly is to make sure that all candidates are considered. This will increase the chances of finding the right fit and cut hiring times by a lot." By automating the early stages, the technology ensures a higher volume of applicants are properly screened and engaged.
The platform provides a structured, automated sequence to help hiring teams evaluate candidates more effectively. This process begins with chat-based qualification to confirm basic criteria, moves to automated phone screenings using conversational AI, and culminates in AI-enabled video interviews with structured evaluation formats. This sequential approach is designed to reduce applicant drop-off, maintain consistent engagement for high-volume roles, and deliver standardized, high-quality data to recruiters.
A central innovation in this release is Humanly's unified communication model, which consolidates all candidate interactions—including email, SMS, chat, and interview data—into a single system. This eliminates the data fragmentation caused by using multiple disparate tools. Kumar emphasized this advantage, stating, "You're splitting your data and making the overall experience worse if you use six or seven different AI tools. Humanly benefits from five years of training data gathered from both human-led and automated interviews. This helps our system learn and adapt its performance to each client." This centralized data supports more accurate candidate assessments and provides recruiting teams with a complete, seamless view of the candidate journey, ultimately transforming a resource-intensive process into a scalable, efficient operation.
